How can parents ensure the safety of their children around water?
Parents can take several steps to ensure water safety:
Always supervise children closely when they are in or near water. Enroll children in swimming lessons to teach them basic water skills and safety. Ensure that life jackets are worn in open water settings such as lakes or oceans. Install pool fences and secure pool covers to prevent unsupervised access. Educate children about the dangers of water and establish rules for safe play.
